Diologue
Molly : Do you have the report finished?
Gordon: I finished it yesterday
but my dog ate it.
Molly : Excuses
excuses. How about the weekly newsletter
is that done?
Gordon: Sorry to say a virus erased my hard drive.
Molly : You must be kidding? I am fed up with your poor work habits.
Gordon: I'll re-do it ASAP.
Molly : While you are re-doing that
I need another copy of the monthly numbers
this paper is blank.
Gordon: That's because the printer is on the blink. Some times it works
and sometimes it doesn't.
Molly : So many excuses. Are you slacking off in the office?
Gordon: Of course not.
Molly : How about the time I caught you sleeping?
Gordon: It won't happen again
I promise.
Molly : Well
get back to work.
Gordon: I'll get those reports on your desk ASAP.
莫莉：你的报告完成了吗？
戈登：我昨天就做完了，可是我的狗把它吃掉了。
莫莉：借口，借口。那每周的电子杂志呢，做完了吗？
戈登：不好意思，病毒把我硬盘的文件弄没了。
莫莉：你一定是在开玩笑吧？我受够了你差劲儿的工作习惯。
戈登：我会尽快重新做。
莫莉：你重新做的时候，再给我做一份每月的数据，这张纸是空的。
戈登：那是因为打印机坏了，有的时候能用，有的时候不能用。
莫莉：这么多的借口，你是不是在办公室偷懒呀？
戈登：当然不是。
莫莉：那我发现你睡觉的事怎么解释？
戈登：我保证，这种事不会再发生了。
莫莉：好吧，回去工作吧。
戈登：我会尽快把那些报告放在你的桌子上。
